Chapter 689 Take it for granted
Through the Wings of Stone, Yue Ji looked at the island behind him. Less than a minute after he left, the entire island fell into darkness.
Yue Ji remained silent and then quickly returned to his home in Sujing City.
Dragging his half-repaired body, Yue Ji went upstairs again. It was already late at night. He turned the key as usual, but the inside was still the familiar darkness.
Yue Ji turned on the light numbly. The room where Yue Sihong was had been dealt with by the police, and he did not attend his funeral.
Family members kept calling and asking questions, and Yue Ji took the time to explain.
Although in the end, all the relatives except Yue Yuan and Yue Ying blamed Yue Ji, they were also dealing with Yue Sihong's funeral.
The aunt's breathing suddenly became heavy, and other relatives could be heard whispering in the background. Yue Ji put his phone on the countertop and began to clean the newly opened wound on his arm. When the alcohol cotton swab was wiped over the wound where the skin and flesh were rolled up, his breathing rate did not change at all.
"You, what's your attitude?" Uncle Er suddenly snatched the phone, "Our Yue family——"
"A property under Yue Sihong's name." Yue Ji pulled out the real estate certificate from the bottom of the medicine box. "I registered as the estate administrator three years ago. My stepmother has divorced me, so I am the one who will inherit it now."
There was a strange silence on the other end of the phone. Yue Ji stared at his own blurry silhouette in the photo on the wall - that was the only part that was deliberately damaged.
The house is currently Yue Sihong's property, and it should be divided to Yue Ji, but the relatives really want to have a piece of the pie. Even the aunt is urging Yue Ji to get down to business and go to the court to handle the matter as soon as possible.
Yue Ji didn't care about the rules and regulations involved. He hadn't dealt with these tedious matters for a long time.
He won't give me the house.
Yue Ji stroked the cold surface of the Evolution Truster and suddenly realized that the greed of these relatives was too uniform - just like the suddenly mutated people on the island.
Without thinking about these tedious things, Yue Ji continued to clean the wound. He took off his clothes, used trembling surgical forceps to tear open the rotten flesh on his arm, and then cleaned the wound with alcohol.
"Tsk..."
The hair on his forehead was already soaked with cold sweat, but his shaking fingers were as steady as a rock. The phone screen suddenly lit up, and Wang Ye's message was clearly visible.
[I feel like you are such an idiot, everything you do is stupid. ]
Yue Ji looked at this sentence in silence. To him, who was often hurt by words, it was nothing.
But in the same vein, he bit down on the large piece of bandage to hold back the pain, mumbling as he continued to clean the wound.
"This shouldn't happen... this shouldn't happen at this time. Dingxi is involved...
Who is it? Heye?
Yue Ji used a sterilized surgical forceps to penetrate into his body and then pulled out a wooden splinter. He endured the pain and sewed the wound. Cold sweat covered his whole body, but he was still puzzled.
None of this is right.
Under normal circumstances, Wang Ye and others would have backstabbed and sold information much earlier, but they became his few true friends. Before this, there was only one person.
But they all became, and then turned around at this moment.
Without further contemplation, Yue Ji cleaned the wound and wiped his body with a wet towel. Then he sewed the wound and wrapped himself in a waterproof cloth and took a shower.
After finishing all this, he lay in his bed, unable to fall asleep for a long time.
The pain was the reason, but what scared him was that he no longer felt safe at home.
In this last safe haven, he actually felt scared.
It seemed as if Yue Sihong’s body was still in the next room.
Yue Ji thought he had nothing left, but when this place also began to produce a strange atmosphere, he felt the long-lost heartbreak again.
He has lost his dream, and now he is going to lose his safe haven.
After curling up against the wall, Yue Ji looked out the window.
In a trance, he remembered the day a year ago.
Woke up in the early morning of a rainstorm and then received the Evolution Truster.
From that moment on, his fate was different.
This home is irreplaceable to him...
Slowly, Yue Ji fell asleep accompanied by pain...
……
The next day, Yue Ji replenished some supplies, but the price of compressed food soared to a terrifying level. If it weren't for the money left by the night raid team, Yue Ji really wouldn't be able to purchase in large quantities.
Due to his lack of taste, Yue Ji only bought some compressed biscuits and tasteless canned food just for basic energy supply.
Inside the Stone Wings, he injected again the injection that the Night Raid Team had given him before, but the effect was not even one-tenth of the original one. Looking at the last two injections, Yue Ji shook his head and stuffed them back.
Today, he received a lot of messages. Pan Ting and Wang Ye asked him to meet in the afternoon, and it seemed that they had something to say.
The feeling of dissatisfaction overflowed the screen. Yue Ji frowned and did not deal with it immediately. Instead, he took the time to orbit the earth and check for the existence of alien beasts in a short time.
It’s a pity that apart from some small alien beasts, Yue Ji didn’t find any other existence. He solved them very neatly, but at the same time he also became confused.
Because the number of alien beasts he killed was far from the original 4000.
After not discovering anything, Yue Ji met Wang Ye and Pan Ting again in the afternoon. However, this time when they met, the two of them did not have the worried look on their faces as before. Instead, they looked at him like a stranger.
Yue Ji asked cautiously, "What's the matter?"
"Nothing, just checking to see if you're still alive, and... have you noticed that when you're not around, the monsters and aliens don't appear at all?"
"Didn't I tell you the logic behind their appearance before?"
Yue Ji's tone became much heavier, and Pan Ting also became angry at this time and started to criticize.
"We've paid so much for you! Is that how you talk? Huh? Why didn't I know you said that before? Hmm? You always say that, and what's the result?
I was wondering if the world would be peaceful if you were buried! But then I thought it didn't make sense, because you killed Ma Xiayi all by yourself!"
"Tsk... an orphan whose mother doesn't want him."
Wang Ye followed up with a sentence, but Yue Ji held the energy blasting gun tightly, then aimed at the two of them and quickly pulled the trigger.
boom! boom! !
The two were stunned for a moment after two energy balls pierced through each other's heads and blasted out strange energy fluctuations.
"Huh? What's going on?"
"Am I still dreaming??"
The two of them looked at their whole bodies at the same time. When Wang Ye saw Yue Ji with a serious expression in front of him, he complained directly.
"It's over. I was still dreaming. Yue Ji actually came back to life."
"Okay, tell me, what is controlling you two?"
Yue Ji sighed helplessly, but in the blink of an eye, the two of them fell on the table again.
Boom! !
Despite such a big commotion, the people around still didn't move.
This time, Yue Ji could no longer stand. He quickly stood up and considered the worst possible scenario.
1. The alien beasts have replaced most of the humans, but if that is the case, the Evolution Trusters should be able to discover it.
Second, Zijella appears and controls all of humanity.
Just as Yue Ji frowned and thought about whether to switch to black hole form to end the earth, Wang Ye and Pan Ting woke up again.
"Ah~ Isn't this our Lord Yue Ji? You are back again?"
After hearing what Pan Ting said, Yue Ji fell into deep thought.
He ignored the two people's crazy thoughts and insults. After observing the surroundings, Yue Ji decided to leave this place temporarily.
As for Wang Ye and Pan Ting's roars, he didn't take them to heart. After arriving on the street, everything was normal and no one seemed to notice anything unusual around him.
Yue Ji felt that things were becoming more and more strange. When he was standing on the side of the road, a middle-aged man with a rough appearance bumped into him.
boom……
"Hey, don't you have eyes when you walk? Huh? You are really sick."
The middle-aged man's curses faded into the noisy streets. Yue Ji stood there, feeling an unprecedented exhaustion - not physically, but something deep in his soul was drying up. Even anger, the most basic emotion, seemed to be drained away and difficult to arouse.
How sad...
When he turned around, he saw an even weirder scene: a dozen passers-by with their eyes closed were walking towards him at exactly the same pace. There was a faint smile on their lips. Just as they were about to collide——
"Are you blind?!"
The sudden roar hurt Yue Ji's eardrums. The moment those sleeping passers-by came across him, they all opened their bloodshot eyes, and their faces twisted into the same angry expressions.
The whole street suddenly became quiet.
Yue Ji took a half step back and found that all the pedestrians had stopped. Hundreds of faces turned towards him at exactly the same angle, and hundreds of mouth corners simultaneously rose to strange arcs.
At this critical moment, a dark shadow flashed out from the alley. Before Yue Ji could react, his wrist was tightly grasped.
A familiar aroma entered his nose, and before Yue Ji could understand why he smelled it, Yi Xilin's strength was amazing, dragging him into a dark alley. The footsteps of the two echoed on the damp wall.
After turning three corners, Yishilin finally stopped. In the darkness, Yue Ji could feel her rapid breathing on his neck.
"Do you still want to follow me?" Yue Ji asked in a low voice.
The answer was a pair of hands that suddenly cupped his cheeks. Ishilin's fingertips were trembling, but with irresistible strength.
"You haven't paid me 520 yet."
"what?"
Before Yue Ji could react, he was pressed into a warm embrace. Yi Xilin's heartbeat could be heard through the clothes, so fast that it seemed astonishing. He subconsciously tried to break free, but found that the other party was so strong at the moment.
"I dreamed of you...the real you." Her voice was choked with sobs.
"That's embarrassing..." Yue Ji's ears began to feel hot, "So can you let me go?"
"Didn't you say..."
"I was wrong! Don't say that! Don't!!!"
Yue Ji suddenly broke free. He took a few deep breaths and forced himself to calm down: "Let's talk about business first."
Yi Xilin looked at Yue Ji and did not answer immediately, but asked indirectly.
"Do you feel that people are very angry recently?"
"Zijela?"
"Huh? This..."
Yi Xilin was embarrassed for a moment. Yue Ji guessed the answer so easily, which made her wonder, "How did you know?"
"Guess."
"So... where have you been all this time?"
Yishilin abruptly changed the subject and her eyes met Yue Ji's tired eyes.
"In the dream, I solved some problems and even met you in a parallel universe."
"what?"
This answer made Yishilin stunned. The corners of her mouth twitched, and then she asked: "What does this mean?"
"Literally, you're the only one awake now?"
"There are other people out there. No matter what, let's go somewhere else to hide first."
Yue Ji agreed with this point of view. The two of them quickly moved and finally arrived at the door of the cinema.
"Is this what you call a transfer?"
"It's hard for our words to be heard when there are so many people around. Let's go."
After saying this, Yi Xilin took Yue Ji inside, but halfway through, she turned and went into the mall.
"what?"
"Let me change your clothes first. You look like a homeless person now. You're attracting too much attention."
Yi Xilin's words made perfect sense and Yue Ji was unable to refute her for a moment. After changing into a set of casual clothes, Yue Ji went into the cinema with Yi Xilin again.
"you sure?"
"I'm sure that when the movie starts, we will communicate in the safe corridor outside the toilet. This is the safest way!"
"That's why we have to sit inside the cinema."
Yi Xilin stuffed the popcorn bucket into his hand as a cover, and whispered: "It's dark under the lamp, don't you understand?" Her breath was cool like peppermint candy, "
"Besides... there are no monsters now, and no one has discovered the two of us. If everyone is dreaming, wouldn't it be easier to rest?"
“I’m not going to make fun of the global population.”
"They are still rational now, there is no rush."
The movie opens with Yue Ji’s most boring and emotionless love soap opera.
"What does the me in the parallel world look like..." she suddenly asked.
Yue Ji's fingertips unconsciously stroked the Evolution Truster and thought of the nun.
"Less talkative than you," he said finally.
Yi Xilin rolled her eyes, then added seriously: "Anyway, the international situation is getting more and more serious now. Your reputation seems to have improved a lot, but it is still neutral.
Regarding Qijiela, the sooner we find the real body, the better, otherwise it will be very troublesome."
"What about us now?"
"See a movie."
"what?"
"Don't you want to watch a movie with me?" Yi Xilin suddenly showed a pitiful expression, but Yue Ji said sternly: "Shouldn't we find the real body now?"
"No, it won't show up until it's finished transforming. It's useless for you to go now, so just be at ease. It will mature naturally."
Yi Xilin was about to drink some milk tea when Yue Ji told her a horrifying fact.
"Before I die, I will blow up the earth with one punch. The best outcome is for everything to return to peace, Ishilin... I really thank you for not becoming that kind of person."
"Ugh?"
Now it was Yishilin's turn to be puzzled. Yue Ji leaned back and then let out a sigh.
"With you still here, how can I possibly attack the Earth..."
